Do the following sentences make sense? "sharpen one's claws on the furniture " Hi, do the following sentences make sense? Here are my best efforts. This is my buddy named Jalapeno who tried to sharpen his claws on the furniture and destroy it. I haven't seen him since yesterday. My friend scolded him and said to him like"XXXXXX". And then, she kicked him out of the house before we had to leave. I hope you weren't angry with me, Jalapeno.:( Note; I am not sure about this part 'sharpen his claws on the furniture...how would you say it in natural way? Thanks in advance.
